Re: Official Week #5 lines for the \"3+1 Challenge- 2005\" contest
 

Well, not the best first week last week.... The end of the Lions game KILLED me.

Here goes week 2 (or 5) however we want to look at it:

$400- Broncos (Washington is by far the worst 3-0 team in a long time... could easily be 0-3)
$300- Bears/Browns Under (Unless the Bears can muster some O I think this a super good bet)
$200- Ravens/Lions Under (Just seems to obvious, but...)
$100- Colts (Another obvious one?)

Good luck to all this week. Except those picking the opposite of my picks.

$400 - Jaguars
$300 - Jets
$200 - Panthers
$100 - Bills

My picks
 

$400 Eagles -3

This game is a mismatch. Eagles are rolling. Dallas is mediocre. Bledsoe cannot get them in the end zone enough, and Owens will chew up Dallas's underachieving secondary.

$300 Broncos -7

Redskins get their come-uppance this week. Redskins are another team that can't score, and Denver is tough at home.

$200 Saints +3

Green Bay can't stop anyone, as they continue to show week after week. McAllister, Horn, and Stallworth will have New Orleans putting up big numbers this weekend. Meanwhile, while Favre still shows flashes, have no confidence in a banged up and used up Ahman Green and a mediocre corps of receivers. And Green Bay's O line stinks.

$100 Lions -1

Baltimore is another team that can't score. They were lucky -- LUCKY -- to beat the steam train that was the Brooks Bollinger-led Jets, at home! How they give points on the road is a mystery to me. I like the Lions in a tight one.

400 Colts
300 Titans
200 Colts o47
100 Steelers

My Picks
 

$400 Eagles -3
$300 Lions -1
$200 Jaguars -2.5
$100 Bills -2.5

All this talk of McNabb and Owens, while the defense continues to be the engine of this team. It's time to get over Dallas's defeat of San Diego in week one; they haven't looked particularly menacing since. The Eagles are just too much.

The Lions have at least occasionally looked threatening, if shakey, whereas the Ravens were way to happy to squeak by the Jets. Playing at home pushes the Lions over the hump they couldn't quite clear in Tampa.

4-0 is great, but when Cleveland was your toughest opposition, you still haven't proved that much. Jacksonville is tough and won't cough up five interceptions. Who knows, the Bengals might be for real, but I suspect that they're going to get taken down a peg on Sunday.

I like the Bills, so fade me.
